This time, you'll be facing a time trial on the Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit in Bathurst, Australia, behind the wheel of an expertly works-tuned Nissan GT-R Nismo.The key here is in how you tackle the continuous corners midway araund the track. The temptation will be to take a line that cuts as close to the barrier as possible, but you'll need to bear in mind that straying too far outside the white line will result in disqualification. Your avarage speed here will be much higher than it has been up until now, so quick judgment and precise driving will be the keys to achieving a good time.

If you’re in an eligible European country, there’s a new way to qualify for GT Academy 2014, and you don’t even need a PlayStation 3 or a copy of GT6 - just a Facebook account!

Called the “GT Academy Challenge”, the Facebook app invites you to “drive” a Nissan GT-R in a series of mini-games playable in your web browser. Your final score is based on your reaction time in an upshifting challenge, braking challenge, slalom course, and a driving course.

The player with the highest score from each country will be invited to a special GT6-based, live qualification event, where “those who perform best” can earn a spot in the national finals of their respective countries.

You are aiming for just one sweet spot in the corner. It's the point where centrifugal and cornering forces reach their equilibrium, where they are all at once replaced with acceleration. APEX - The invisible vertex of a corner, a place where the fastest lap times are recorded.

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is a time trial in the Nissan GT-R GT3 on the high-speed, highly technical Spa-Francorchamps track. Only the top-ranked players in each region will go on to compete in the National Finals when the event ends.Although the car used here is GT-R, it's been modified with an FR drivetrain, meaning that, similar to the 370Z in Round 2, you'll need to be very careful with the accelerator indeed. It's particularly easy to lose it on the exits from the smaller corners, so take special care there. The secret to a really good lap time here is to take all the straights at the maximum speed possible. In order to do so, you'll need to visualise your exits from corners that lead onto them, and come out as fast as you can. Other than that, it's all down to practice, so stay focused, polish your technique, and see if you can't climb the rankings!
